Chapter 212

Even if the main military forces are deliberately hidden, their military power will still be weakened, so several small countries are negotiating whether to surrender directly or unite to form an alliance. If the forces of several countries are integrated, they will have a chance to compete for the world.

The two options are the result of several countries discussing together, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, so the final result has not been obtained for a long time, which directly leads to the failure of the royal family of the Night Country to reply to the border army in time. In any case, before the specific will of the royal family was issued, Zhao Xu would either hold the fortress or retreat to the city pass.

The night passed, and the next morning, the three people who had a simple rest got up conveniently, and then went to the door to take a look. The guards were still there, but they were replaced by two others.

The camp has returned to normal, and many soldiers are practicing in those positions from yesterday. It was precisely because the Snow Army could come at any time that Zhao Xu asked the soldiers to continue to practice.

Under the command of those officers, some soldiers were practicing simple combat moves, and some soldiers were training to arrange their troops.

After last night's meeting, those generals had already conveyed Zhao Xu's instructions, and the soldiers in the barracks already knew that they had the responsibility to defend the fortress. In this case, the enemy is currently training, and they are more serious than before, of course, many people have been afraid, afraid that the Snow Army will suddenly attack.

Putting aside the situation in the barracks, after asking if they could go out for a walk, the three returned to their tents disappointed, all listless and a little worried.

Without knowing when the chief would come and send the few people away, none of the three of them could keep calm. I knew that I would encounter the current situation, but now that I think about it, the three of them would rather stay in the fierce forest, but unfortunately everything is a foregone conclusion.

"What should I do?" At this time, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't care about whether he would ask the wrong question. And Ming Buregret is not in the mood to care about Lin Xuanzhong's question at the moment, but feels that it is good that the three of them can talk together, at least they don't have to worry about their safety all the time.

"It's useless to worry about it, we might as well discuss the current situation. ”

"What else needs to be discussed, isn't it all clear now?"

"That's better than nothing. ”

After a brief exchange, the three of them analyzed the current situation one after another as they did yesterday.

"I don't think it's too much to worry about, if a few of us were lucky enough to die in that forest, God must hope that we can live. Thinking back to the experience in the past few days, I don't know what happened, and my attitude of not regretting it suddenly became indifferent, and I actually comforted Lin Xuanzhong and the others.

Affected by Ming Buregret's optimistic attitude, the two really felt that there was some truth. If this is the case, it will be superfluous for anyone to worry.

"What Brother Ming said is that now we should resign ourselves to fate and don't need to think too much. Somehow, Lin Xuanzhong said such a sentence, and that tone sounded like an ordinary optimism.

But maybe Lin Xuanzhong said it at the right time, and the two of them also felt that Lin Xuanzhong was very arrogant, and they were taken aback. But when the two calmed down, the two felt that Lin Xuanzhong's attitude was problematic. finally survived until now, how can the three of them resign themselves to fate.

"I think I'd better ask the guard at the door first, maybe I can get some information from them. In desperation, Qingyi made such a proposal.

In this regard, the other two directly agreed. Without further ado, the three of them went out again.

"May I ask the two brothers, I don't know when the three of us will be able to leave?" In terms of communicating with people, Qingyi is still better at it.

"Elder Qianfu said that he would come over to meet a few people in person later, and there is no need to worry about them for the time being. The guard who replied was okay and didn't treat the three of them coldly.

It's just that from the tone of the other party's speech, Qing Yi can see that the two have no tendency to say anything more to the three of them.

"Thank you for telling this brother," he simply thanked the other party, and followed Qingyi back. Since the other party didn't want to say more, Qingyi also didn't want to be bored. If the commander of the thousand will come, then all things will be clear.

The other two also felt that they had got the answers they needed, and when Qing Yi turned around to go back to the tent, the two didn't say anything and followed Qing Yi in.

"Master Qianfu should have something to do, let's wait for a while," returned to the original place and sat down, Qing Yi expressed his opinion.

"What are we going to do if we don't come?"

"Keep waiting. ”

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Why don't you practice martial arts?"

"But the tent is too small to practice. ”

One person said a sentence, and the three of them soon encountered problems again.

"So what do you say?"

"Still, let's eat something first. ”

Not to mention that the night was frightened and scared in the past, now Lin Xuanzhong really felt a little hungry when he thought that they still had dry food, and then looked at the baggage with a lot of dry food, and his heart was much more steady.

"Why are you still in the mood to eat at this time?"

"Brother Ming, why are you still in the mood to speak at this time?"

"You ......" glared at Lin Xuanzhong, knowing that he didn't regret it, he wanted to kill Lin Xuanzhong carefully, but he didn't say anything.

"You two don't quarrel, I think it's better to save more strength. "I don't know why Lin Xuanzhong suddenly had a quarrel with Ming Buregret, and Qingyi is sweat.

In the final analysis, in fact, Lin Xuanzhong was just joking to ease the atmosphere, who thought that the timing of speaking seemed to be wrong, so Ming Buregret was a little dissatisfied. In addition, the three of them will continue to talk in a short period of time, or because the mood of the three is a little confused.

After Qingyi's persuasion, Ming Buregret didn't want to say anything anymore, and Lin Xuanzhong also didn't want to speak. The three people in the tent fell silent in unison, but at that moment, the curtain was opened.

The curtain was lifted, and the three of them looked at the door at the same time. I thought it was the commander of the thousand who came, but the person who looked at it was one of the two guards who were at the gate yesterday.

"Food and water for you," said the man, who was carrying two things in his hands, food and water. However, it smelled like cooked meat, and they didn't know how to eat meat, and the three of them were a little puzzled.

"Dare to ask when this brother will be able to send us away?" At the critical moment, Lin Xuanzhong naturally asked important questions first.

"Our commander has his own decision on this matter, and I hope that a few of us will not be in a hurry. The soldier spoke in a very polite tone, so that Lin Xuanzhong wanted to ask a few more questions.

"Why are you the one who came to bring us food today?"

"Lord Shi died in battle last night, so I will temporarily do the work of delivering food for the three of them, which is the order of the commander. ”

"What, what of your chiefs is dead?"

"Exactly," the soldier nodded earnestly, and then spoke again, "If there is nothing else to do, please give me the cutlery you got yesterday, and leave now." ”

Before the three of them could react to the news that the chief was dead, the soldiers standing at the door were in a hurry to leave.

"Then can we still leave?" At the last moment, Ming did not regret repeating the question that the three of them were most concerned about.

"Our commander has his own opinion on this matter," said the soldier's tone suddenly cold, as if he had become a little impatient with the three of them.

After the soldier's continuous emphasis, all three realized that they could no longer ask each other what they wanted to know. So, after replacing the food and water in the other party's hands, the three watched the soldier leave, leaving the three of them looking at the two catties of cooked meat and not knowing what they were thinking.

"Eat it while it's hot," there was silence for a while, but Lin Xuanzhong spoke first: "Since the commander hasn't forgotten us and sent us meat to eat, he will come to see us sooner or later." Lin Xuanzhong's tone was very affirmative, and this conclusion was analyzed according to the current situation.

"What Qingfeng said is very reasonable, let's stop thinking nonsense, it's important to fill your stomach," Ming Buregret also became indifferent at the moment, the current matter is not up to them, if they follow Lin Xuanzhong's words, it will be better.

Qing Yi on the side saw that the two of them looked away from the matter, smiled and didn't say anything, and then the three of them found a place to sit facing each other, and then ate a lot.

There are not many seasonings used in cooked meat, and the taste is not outstanding, but compared to their raw beast meat, the umami taste of cooked meat alone makes the three of them salivate. Unfortunately, the portion was too small, and the three of them could only eat it mixed with dry food. Under the scramble, the three people who had no appetite ate very happily.

"What kind of meat do you say this is?"

"This meat is very chewy, it doesn't look like human flesh, it should be the meat of a ferocious beast. ”

"What, have you ever eaten human flesh?"

"No, how could I have eaten something like that!"

"Then how do you know it's not human flesh?"

"I've heard people say that human flesh tastes!"

"Is it true that someone eats human flesh?"

"Yes, it is said that there is a barbarian land in the world, and the people there are extremely fierce and ferocious, as long as it is the prey they hunt, whether it is a man or a fierce beast, it will become their food. ”

"Where is that?"

"It's a very remote place in the Southern Regions, in fact, I've only heard about it, and I don't know if it's really there. ”

After a conversation, the three who stopped picking up the meat in their hands again and eating it. There were only horses in the camp except for people, so it was easy for the three of them to think that they were eating the meat of the horses.

Last night the two armies fought, and it was extremely normal to kill and wound some horses, and it seems that the three of them still benefited from the war, and only today did they have some meat to eat. After thinking of this, the meat in Lin Xuanzhong's mouth suddenly became unpalatable.

The other two seemed to take this into account as well, slowing down.

After eating, there was nothing to do, and several people meditated and breathed in the tent. After last night's rest and the current pranayama, the state of the three of them has changed greatly.

Time passed little by little, and soon in the afternoon, there was a sound outside the tent, and the three people who were disturbed and were still running the true qi conditioning opened their eyes one after another. I just saw a person open the curtain and come in, and the person who came was the commander himself yesterday.
